Psyros Diagnostics

Project Prototyping of a novel single-molecule-counting point-of-care system to expedite the 0-1 hour algorithm for high-sensitivity troponin testing
Description

Existing bedside troponin tests are insufficient for ruling out a heart attack. Psyros have developed a   completely novel detection method allowing performance of high sensitivity troponin testing, within minutes, at the bedside, enabling retesting at 1 hour and faster diagnosis. 

Patients presenting to A&E with chest pain are triaged using a blood test for troponin. Existing bedside troponin tests are insufficient to enable use of the 0/1h algorithm, recommended to expedite diagnosis and treatment or rule-out. 

Psyros are developing a rapid, affordable, ultra-sensitive point-of-care (POC) system, to fulfil the unmet need for bedside high sensitivity troponin measurement. Our simple proprietary method enables single-molecule counting in a digital manner. Binding events generate dark spots in a fluorescent background that can be counted individually using simple optical methods. This digital approach is essential to overcome signal-to-noise limitations, allowing enhanced sensitivity. It is readily adaptable to a small footprint POC system. This will facilitate widespread adoption of the 0/1h protocol across the NHS.

Health Navigator Ltd (Trading as HN)

Project Testing the technical feasibility to both scale and spread proven AI-driven identification of high-cost, high-need patients with long term conditions, for an already proven intervention to reduce unscheduled care demand
Description

AI-guided clinical coaching is a nurse-led proactive care model, which remotely supports patients identified by machine-learning-based case finding. This project seeks to enhance the algorithm to better identify suitable patients, and implement it on a testbed site.   

With a clear clinical case established through a randomised control trial. HN are working to prove the feasibility of: (i) scaling the case finding data-engineering already in place in England to run securely, legally and efficiently in a cloud-based context (ii) proving that it is feasible to take the same approach to NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde within the different clinical, data and cultural context. This process will reduce the technical barriers to adoption and allow much earlier identification of patients at risk of UEC, identifying the minimal dataset and cohort build to be able to deploy the solution in real-time. The end goal is a system to support 14,350 patients by 2024, saving the NHS close to £100m.

Kinseed Limited

Project Reducing demand on Urgent and Emergency Care
Description

To reduce demand on Urgent and Emergency Department, University Hospital Birmingham and Birmingham Women’s & Children’s Hospital introduce front-line triage - Unified Paediatric Advice and Guidance Service (UPAGS)

Kinseed’s SwiftCare Suite is digitally transforming Paediatric transfers and handovers; enabling clinicians to easily create forms, workflows, processes, with no code - working with an innovative library of FHIR-based medical and healthcare-focused “building blocks” in a secure, modern cloud environment.

Digital Transformation is critical in the world of Healthcare – but digitising a workflow, form or process can be difficult, expensive and time consuming. SwiftCare from Kinseed makes it easy, by letting healthcare professionals build solutions easily with familiar tools and data types; all in a modern, easy to use and great-value cloud platform. SwiftCare is already used by some of the leading hospitals to modernise and optimise their processes – managing busy critical transport teams, providing remote monitoring and clinical oversight for distant patients, taking control of ever-growing referral and clinical data, and much more. Built on open, secure APIs and hyper-modern technologies, SwiftCare is the quickest way to make your digital health environment come to life
